So I smoked some wires the other day and am now hunting down shorts. My newly rebuilt J&M Machine Shop engine has 5 miles… yup ONLY 5 miles. Since getting everything back together and having broken in the engine, I developed a bunch of electrical shorts. I think the engine gremlins got angry and called in their cousins. I’ll update you on my adventures in the headlight switch arena at another time. Today I am taking a brake (no, i didn’t spell that wrong)… a brake light switch to be more precise
Basically, one of my shorts was in this switch. This sucker was heating up like you wouldn’t believe. The ammeter pegged past -20 whenever I stepped on the brake. So, since it was already broken I decided to take it apart myself. Here is the video. Easy to fix!
